3.Reading with Rover is a reading program where children read to dogs.In addition to Reading with Rover,which is based on Washington state,there are many such reading programs around the country.The goal of all these programs is to improve the reading skills of children with reading problems by having children read to dogs.
    When reading aloud in the classroom,many children with reading problems and poor reading skills feel frightened.They have little confidence in themselves and are afraid of being laughed at.They may also feel that reading is difficult,boring and stressful.However,when children read to dogs,reading becomes a fun and non-stressful experience for both the children and the dogs.Dogs don't criticize,judge or laugh at the children's reading ability.
    Reading with Rover and other programs like it have been a huge success,resulting in improved reading skills for a significant number of participating children with reading problems.In addition to making learning enjoyable,when children read to dogs,it increases their sense of worth and self-confidence.
    As part of the Reading with Rover program,the children read to dogs that are registered therapy dogs.These are dogs that have been trained and tested.Along with their owners,these dogs have become registered therapy teams.
    A recent research study was conducted by the University of California,which concluded that when children read to dogs,it can increase their reading skills by thirty percent.
    Children who took part in this study remarked,"I feel relaxed when I am reading to a dog because I am having fun.""The dogs don't care if you read really badly so you just keep going."
    When children read to dogs and improve their reading skills,it becomes just another example of how wonderful dogs are and how important they are to our society.

56.What's the aim of Reading with Rover?(no more than 10 words)To improve the reading skills of children with reading problems.
57.Why does reading become a fun and non-stressful experience when children read to dogs?(no more than 12 words)
Because dogs don't criticize,judge or laugh at the children's reading ability.
58.What's Paragraph 3 mainly about?(no more than 12 words)The benefits of Reading with Rover and other programs like it.
59.What does the word"conducted"mean in the fifth paragraph?(no more than 2 words)carried out./performed./done.
60.What do you think of Reading with Rover and other programs like it?(no more than 25 words)I think they touch me a lot,because it becomes just another example of how wonderful dogs are and how important they are to our society..

分析 本文介紹一個讀書節(jié)目對孩子的幫助.
和羅浮一起讀書是一個節(jié)目,目的是通過讓孩子給狗讀書,提高有閱讀障礙的孩子的閱讀能力.平時這些孩子在讀書是會緊張,但是當孩子給狗讀書的時候,讀書是有趣的沒有壓力的體驗,因為狗不會批評,判斷,嘲笑孩子的閱讀能力.這些狗是經(jīng)過特殊培訓的,孩子們在這個活動里收獲很大.

解答 56.答案:To improve the reading skills of children with reading problems.
    細節(jié)題.根據(jù)第一段末The goal of all these programs is to improve the reading skills of children with reading problems by having children read to dogs可知這些節(jié)目的目的是通過讓孩子給狗讀書,提高有閱讀障礙的孩子的閱讀能力.所以答案是To improve the reading skills of children with reading problems.
57.答案:Because dogs don't criticize,judge or laugh at the children's reading ability.
     細節(jié)題.根據(jù)第二段末when children read to dogs,reading becomes a fun and non-stressful experience for both the children and the dogs.Dogs don't criticize,judge or laugh at the children's reading ability.可知當孩子給狗讀書的時候,讀書是有趣的沒有壓力的體驗,因為狗不會批評,判斷,嘲笑孩子的閱讀能力,所以答案是Because dogs don't criticize,judge or laugh at the children's reading ability.
58.答案:The benefits of reading with Rover and other programs like it.
    主旨大意題.根據(jù)本段的內(nèi)容可知本段說的是這個讀書節(jié)目的好處,所以答案總結(jié)為The benefits of reading with Rover and other programs like it.
59.答案:carried out.
     詞義猜測題.根據(jù)主語A recent research study 和狀語by the University of California,可知劃線單詞表示"進行,執(zhí)行,做",所以答案是carried out/performed/done.
60.答案I think they touch me a lot,because it becomes just another example of how wonderful dogs are and how important they are to our society.
     推理判斷題.根據(jù)末段When children read to dogs and improve their reading skills,it becomes just another example of how wonderful dogs are and how important they are to our society可知作者對這個節(jié)目的評價很高,所以答案是I think they touch me a lot,because it becomes just another example of how wonderful dogs are and how important they are to our society.

8."YOUR password has expired (過期),"a message said on my screen,with instructions for changing it.Coming up with a new code doesn't seem like a big deal,unless you work at my company,where we have to change it monthly,using at least one uppercase (大寫的) character,one lowercase character,one symbol,and one number.Oh,the whole password can't be fewer than eight characters.And I can't use any of the same passwords I've used in the past three months.
Suddenly I was furious.What didn't make it any better was that I was deeply depressed after my recent divorce.Disbelief about what she had done to me was all I thought about every day.
I remembered a tip I'd heard from my former boss.He'd said:"I'm going to use a password to change my life."
I couldn't focus on getting things done in my current mood.There were clear signs of what I needed to do to get control of my life again.
My password became the sign.My password reminded me that I shouldn't let myself be a victim of my recent breakup and that I was strong enough to do something about it.
I made my password Forgive@h3r.
I had to type this several times a day.The simple action changed the way I looked at my ex-wife.That constant reminder led me to accept the way things had happened and find a new way of dealing with my depression.As the month wore on,I felt a slow healing begin to happen.By the time my server asked me to reset my password the following month,I felt free.
One month later,my dear Exchange server asked me yet again to reset my password.I thought about the next thing that I had to get done.
My password became Quit@smoking4ever.
I quit smoking overnight.
This password was a painful one to type during that month,but doing it helped me to yell at myself in my mind as I typed that statement.It motivated me to follow my monthly goal.
One month later,my password became Save4trip@thailand.
Guess where I went three months later:Thailand.
Seeing how these reminders helped to achieve my goals kept me motivated and excited.While it's sometimes difficult to come up with your next goal,keeping at it brings great results.

41.Which of the following passwords fits the company's requirements?D
A.Seeme@like
B.Dream4future
C.Visit﹩me
D.Stay@4ever
42.What does the underlined word"furious"mean in the second paragraph?B
A.excited
B.a(chǎn)ngry
C.tolerate
D.pleased
43.Why couldn't the author focus on doing things?C
A.Because he couldn't come up with a new password.
B.Because he always forgot his password.
C.Because he was in low spirits due to his divorce.
D.Because his wife stole his password before their breakup.
44.What happened to the author after he had used his password to change his life?A
A.He finally overcame his depression and forgave his ex-wife.
B.He started smoking to heal his broken heart.
C.He quit his job and went traveling around the world.
D.He became furious about his passwords getting longer and longer.
45.What message does the author intend to convey through his story?D
A.Never let yourself be a victim of others'faults.
B.Be patient with the healing process for any pain.
C.Constant reminders can be positive as well as negative.
D.Setting yourself a goal and keeping at it can bring great results.

17.While there are some unpleasant people in the world,let's not forget that most people are friendly!If you find someone who likes the same restaurants as you or who is also crazy about"Harry Potter",then feel free to talk the night away!Just keep the conversation light and about your common interests.If a topic is brought up that doesn't sit well with you,keep in mind that you are always in control.Ignore your manners at this time!
Do stay open minded.Sometimes chatting with strangers can turn into a close bond-or just another person you can turn to for a laugh.But when typing away in your computer,it's easy to get carried away and to want to tell your new friend all about yourself.Keep the personal details as secret,and instead talk about fun hobbies or the latest episode(一集)of"The Good Wife".If Stranger Sally is asking what you look like,time to put up the red flag.
It is never necessary for someone to know what you look like.
Always listen to your gut(直覺).If something inside you is telling you something isn't right,it probably isn't.Pay attention to how your body responds to certain people online.Remember,you never really know who you are talking to just by looking at a computer screen name,so downloading anything is an absolute no.
Seep Talking to strangers online doesn't always have to be a nightmare(噩夢).By following these do's and don'ts,chatting with someone you don't know can be a cool experience,and can make sure that you stay safe in the world of the Internet.
